University has nothing to do with CCD: Prof Talat

KASHMIR University, Vice Chancellor Prof Talat Ahmad said a committee has been constituted to ‘look into’ the issue of land at Zakura. “The Committee will take a final decision on the issue,” he told Greater Kashmir.The Registrar Prof Zaffar Reshi, however, said it was not possible for the University to surrender its land. “People there are trying to be smart. It is extremely unlikely that land would be given to them,” he said.On establishment of more ATMs in the campus, the Vice-Chancellor said: “If banks are providing facilities to students, why should we hesitate to take them. No MoU has been signed in this regard with any bank.”On the issue of Café Coffee Day, Prof Talat candidly admitted that the “property belongs to the proprietors of the service providers and the University has nothing to do with it.”Asked on what grounds the CCD was established, he said, “A committee will look into it.”
